This recipe, by way of Bon Appetit, is great. Absolutely perfect for the summer. Please enjoy (responsibly…just like that girl in the photo).

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 3 cups freshly brewed jasmine tea, cooled
  • 3/4 cup gin [I infused it with green jasmine tea]
  • 3/4 cup limoncello
  • 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh grapefruit juice
  • 1 cup chilled club soda
  • Ice cubes
  • 6 lemon slices (for garnish)

Preparation

  • Stir honey and 1/2 cup hot water in small bowl until honey dissolves. Cool completely.
  • Combine honey water, jasmine tea, gin, limoncello, lemon juice, and grapefruit juice in large pitcher. Add club soda and stir to blend.
Fill six 1-pint mason jars or 6 tall glasses with ice cubes. Divide tea mixture among jars; top each with lemon slice.
